In future years when our railroad men
are through surveying and perhaps when
thes have spent millions Of money 10
building roads, the railroad system of
Lewiston will be main line down the
Snake river from the mouth OF Burnt
nver canyon, crossing the Snake at Lew
's'cn, down the north bank Of the Snake
on the side Of the mountain to Steptoe
canyon up the canyon onto the high land
through Whitman county across the
Columbia to the Sound, with branch
line up the Clearwater through the Pot
latch country to the Coeus d Acnc mines
and another to Camas Prairie. We
don't charge for this prediction. But
let the boys paste it ia their hats and
when they are meu they will say thai we
were a true prophet. -.

Important Suggestion.

Hon T. T. Dubois in letter, under
date Of July %, written at Black foot,
Idaho, says: 81 enclose copy of bill for
dividing reservations. IF the Indians
are wiling you hid better request the
Secretary of the Interior to send cut a
commission. l am quite sure by the
display of little energy You eau have
this done. You can consult with some
of your active citizens. | will be only
to glad 20 do all l can. But you must
attend to the preliminarias and details. ?"
T. T. DUBOIS.
p. s. / would add that | have re
quested the Secretary of the Interior to
send out commission about the scyeraty
business and hope you will keep moving
at your end. The Indians and agents
ought to be united for it, D."
Mr. Dubois suggestion is good one
and ought to be needed by every citizen
of Idaho who desires the good of Idaho
and the Indian. Who among us will
move in the matter? Let us have Il
meeting Of ctizsns inau.urate steps to
secure an early commission to come, and
have the surveys made and the allot
ments made to Indians under the law
which We published shor, time ago.

LEwIsToN's OPPORTUNITY

Lewiston is now surrounded by M rs
grain than has ever been raised in thi.
section of the country, There never has
besu such yield as this year. Ira
Small's farm on the high land between
this place and Lapwai indicates a WELD
OF forty bushels Of wheat to the acre
he will have it all harvested to day. A.
Trimble is reported as having from TWEEN
ty,fve to thirty thousand bushels OF
wheat in sight, mostly volunteer. TIL.
other farms, though not so large, are all
yielding we'll. Lewiston is the market
for all this grain. Let our merchants
and business men see to it that the
farmers get the highest possible price for
their grain and their goods at such low
figures as will insure their patronage
hereafter. There should be no an,anop
ism between our business men and the
farmers. They stand or fall together.
This is Lewiston's opportunity While
other towns are quarrelin, with the
producers let our business men do all
they can to foster trade and benefit those
around US. Let Lewiston hold ON 10
what it has and foster and support all
business enterprises which benefit the
'own aud an era of prosperity and in
,reascd growth will commence.

FROM CRAIG'S MOUNTAIN.

In Camp, MAscN CREEK, Aug, l, 81.
DEAR TELLER:-We left Lewiston
Tuesday morning, the 26,h ut. at a. m.

We visited the "blsck pine cabin" on
Thursday and passed the camp Of Mrs.
Stevens, Morrison, Cooper and company,
on Soldiers meadow. There is no one
camped at the black pine as yet.
We found G. F. Leland and George
Penny with their team tied to tree and

We also met Mr.. Scott in search of the
above named gentlemen f, the purpose
Of plotting them to SCOTS Hotel

Lets Change the Programme.

1t our government would max c "a little
change in their methods and Instead OF
shipping tho Indians east to see the
country and educate them they would
ship our officials at Washington, who are
administering the government, west to
see the country and learn something of
the circumstances Of the people whom
they are governing they would be much
better educated as TO the manner OF
administ, ring the laws. Many Of their
theories are good most of them are
honest, but sixteen years old boy who
has but commcn school education and
has followed the pillow all his lie could
administer our laws much better than
some OF our eastern officials now do.
They need to see the country.

THE COUNTRY EDITOR.

The country elitor is supposed to be
as competent and ready to give to his
readers as much knowledge Of things in
the range Of the circulation of his paper
and to be as accurate in his statements
as the editor of any metropolitan Journal
The latter, as general thing, has much
greater compensation for his labor.
His paper is an organ Of men who have
far more money and means of furnishing
information to an editor, and generally
take lively interest in giving that in
formation to the editor of their CITY
paper, without his going outside of bis
Office to acquire il, and the editor has
means to employ steady and faithful
reporters Of what is moving in the world
outside, and yet the country editor is
charged with want of diligence In not
knowing all that is going on all around
him within the range of one hundred or
more miles around his Office. He is
expected to make just and proper com.
ments upon every question of Importance
that agitates the people Of his county or
district, whether it be pertaining to crops,
society, politics, education, mines, rail-
road, rates of fare and ireights. lie
must be their oracle of wisdom and
knowledge, and if he makes mistake he
and his paper suffer in reputation and
influence, while his mental ability and
his diligence is not so much at fault as
have been his opportunities for gaining
tho knowledge OF events passing In his
district, owing to his want Of means to
circulate where and among those who
know and could and would inform him if
brought together in counsel The OBJ.
servation of others.n his district of places
and events, is oftcntimcs entirely diff
ferert from what his OWE would be if
he were permitted to make his own. and
yet he must take that of Others and
make it bis own if he writes at all about
the locality or the event. 1t is a difficult
matter for y country editor, even il he
have the means to pay for his services,
to secure a reporter having the fidelity
and iaithfulness in his observations tina,
the editor himself would have in his own
person, were he privileged to report fer
himself. This leads us to think that the
intcr-state commerce law is calculated 10
restrict knowledge, by compelling poor
editors to pay passage on railroads when
travelling for the purpose Of acquiring
Information to give to the public through
the press. Senator Stewart has ex-
pressed similar opinion. Many others
say that editors should be allowed, with
out charge, upon all our pubic convey.
'ances. They travel for the benefit of
the public aud not for the benefit OF
Vhemselves, only IN small degree
Several railroad managers take the same
view and will not exact fare from editors
and regular reporters for newspapers,
while other professions who are travelling
on their own business arc compelled to
pay. The editor is as much the servant
ofthe public without ad, quate coupensa-
ton as any class of men, and we say be
Is OF more use to people than any other
profession and he should insist that he
should be recognized as such and should
demcan himself as such, even though he
be poor.
